Bucher Recycler RM120

Introducing the Bucher Recycler RM120, the market’s most flexible, high-performing water recycling sewer cleaner.

Overview

The Bucher Recycler RM120 merges power, precision, and eco-conscious engineering. Featuring a continuous five-step water recycling system, this unit maximizes uptime by eliminating the need to stop and refill—saving water, fuel, time, and enhancing overall productivity.

Key Benefits

• Sustainable Operation – Employs an automatic, continuous 5-stage water recycling system (coarse & fine filters, cyclones, transfer pump, internal booms) to cleanse and reuse water effectively, protecting both the tank and pipelines.

• Cost & Time Efficiency – Avoid unnecessary delays and resource use by reusing sewer water repeatedly, reducing fill stops and operational waste.

• Adaptable Chassis Options – Comes standard on a 26-tonne, 3-axle Scania P cab with rear steer axle for tight urban maneuvering. Optional chassis from Volvo or Mercedes, or sleeper-cab variants, are also available.

• Low-Height Design – Compact overhead boom architecture allows access under older city infrastructure (e.g., Victorian rail bridges), reducing rerouting constraints.
